Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade

Image
Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade Great Day, Fam. This one right here? It’s not for everyone. If you’re not at or approaching Eldership—defined in our tribe as about 55 years old and up—you might not feel all of this. But if you’re curious, or if you’re one of those younger souls already walking with wisdom, you’re welcome to keep reading. This message is for the Elders. For those of us who should know better. And yes—I’m including myself. Let’s Start With the Mirror I’ve got to confess something. I’ve been guilty. Guilty of being reactionary. Guilty of falling into the trap of conservatism. Guilty of romanticizing the past. Guilty of looking at our young people and calling them “soft”—as if we were born warriors, as if we didn’t have to become who we are through fire, failure, and guidance. Many of us Elders are stuck in a loop. We remember only the highlights of our youth—the toughest times we survived, the boldest moments ...

Tribal Quote Revisited - Embracing the Wisdom Journey: Navigating the Path to Inner Enlightenment

 Embracing the Wisdom Journey: Navigating the Path to Inner Enlightenment

The image features a contemplative silhouette set against a rich tapestry of Pan-African colors—red, black, green, and yellow—interwoven artistically to symbolize unity, strength, and cultural heritage. This evocative composition conveys a sense of deep introspection and empowerment, resonating with themes of personal growth and enlightenment on a wisdom journey.
Journey of Wisdom: An Introspective Voyage through Pan-African Colors.

Greetings, Brothers and Sisters! It’s your brother ha2tim here, embarking on a profound wisdom journey, where the tides of enlightenment aren't confined to the rigid structures of traditional learning but flow freely, reaching the sacred space of your inner wisdom. Today, we navigate the depths of a timeless adage by the visionary Kahlil Gibran: “The teacher who is indeed wise does not bid you to enter the house of his wisdom but rather leads you to the threshold of your mind.” This proverb isn't merely a statement; it's a beacon on our wisdom journey, illuminating the path to self-discovery and cultural empowerment.

As we traverse this wisdom journey together, let's decipher the fabric of this profound truth. True wisdom isn't about hoarding information in the confines of our minds; it's a vibrant, evolving journey within. It's about transforming information into insights and understanding that the most sacred sanctuary of knowledge resides within us.

  1. Wisdom Journey as an Inner Exploration: The pursuit of wisdom is an intimate voyage, not a destination to arrive at. It's how we navigate the intricate labyrinth of our thoughts and emotions, transforming every challenge into a stepping stone on our wisdom journey.

  2. The Teacher's Role in Our Wisdom Journey: A true mentor doesn't confine us within the walls of their knowledge but sets us free to explore the vastness of our own intellect. They don't overshadow our thoughts but shine a light on the path to our own discovery, guiding us gently on this wisdom journey.

  3. The Power of Self-Discovery in Our Wisdom Journey: The most profound revelations spring from within. When a teacher leads us to the threshold of our minds, they're inviting us on an inward odyssey, a wisdom journey through the cosmos of our inner being, where every thought and intuition is a star in the vast universe of our consciousness.

As we continue on this wisdom journey, let's not merely absorb knowledge; let's live it, breathe it, and embody it. If this message of a transformative wisdom journey resonates with you, and you're yearning for a deeper connection with your roots, your community, and your inner self, I warmly invite you to join us.

We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship.
